Dongcheng Wudi raised his eyebrows subconsciously, instinctively aware that this funeral was not simple.
A funeral that can be evaluated as a farce is not simple in the first place, and judging from Li Tianlan's intentions, Li Huacheng seems to be involved behind this funeral...
He suddenly laughed in a low voice: "I'm suddenly a little curious about what you and Jiang Shangyu talked about."
Li Tianlan paused and stood there, thinking for a while.
The conversation with Jiang Shangyu replayed in his mind again, and the weird feeling in his heart became stronger. He spoke very slowly: "Jiang Shangyu is willing to give up the things that no longer belong to him but can be influenced by him."
Give me all the chips, including the entire Northern Xinjiang Province."
"What does he want?"
Dongcheng Wudi asked directly.
If this news is exposed, it will definitely cause an earthquake. In fact, today's result is a complete accident for Dongcheng Wudi. Like most people, he also thinks that Jiang Shangyu will use the chips in his hands
It is impossible to leave it to anyone but Li Tianlan.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
But that's exactly what the other party did.
Dongcheng Wudi has never thought about this scenario.
What can he do here?
It was just because Li Tianlan wanted to come and he came to accompany him around.
I thought it was just a formality, but I didn't expect that Li Tianlan actually took Jiang Shangyu's bargaining chip.
What's the reason?
Dongcheng Wudi couldn't think of a reason for Jiang Shangyu to do this.
If this is a transaction, Jiang Shangyu gave Li Tianlan a big gift, then what does he want to take away from Li Tianlan?
"He wants a promise from me."
Li Tianlan said softly: "No matter what, he wants me to ensure the safety of the country."
Dongcheng Wudi waited quietly.
Then Li Tianlan stopped talking.
After a short silence, Dongcheng Wudi, who looked a little stunned, raised his eyebrows: "No more?"
"Gone."
Li Tianlan nodded.
Dongcheng Wudi opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Jiang Shangyu gave away the last bargaining chip in his hand, asking only to ensure the safety of Jiangshan...
The request he made was almost as if he hadn't made it at all.
Jiang Shangyu left Zhongzhou and would not have anything to do with Zhongzhou in the short term. Neither Li Tianlan nor Li Kuangtu had any reason to deal with Jiangshan. Jiangshan's safety could already be guaranteed.
If Jiang Shan were an ordinary person, someone might still have some ideas.
But he is a member of the Central Continent.
This status, even if he retires in the future, will be the greatest guarantee for Jiangshan.
Unless Jiang Shan committed suicide and wanted to attack Li Tianlan, basically nothing would happen that could threaten his safety.
"This is unreasonable."
Dongcheng Wudi said in a deep voice.
Jiang Shangyu's request was too simple. It was as if he gave Li Tianlan a big gift for nothing.
Just like Arabian Nights.
"It's really unreasonable."
Li Tianlan nodded: "It's quite unreasonable. It will be very interesting behind the scenes.
Jiang Shangyu actually doesn't want to leave Zhongzhou. This is what he said himself. I can basically confirm that he is not lying.
In fact, if you think about it seriously, although he will lose a lot of free space if he stays in Central Continent, it is still better than leaving Central Continent with nothing. When he left, someone wanted to let him go, so he was kicked out."
"so..."
Dongcheng Wudi opened his mouth and smiled bitterly: "Is it Li Huacheng?"
"yes."
Li Tianlan
He said softly: "I am the most surprised."
He didn't tell Dongcheng Invincible how powerful Li Huacheng was. It was meaningless. His strength was just a means to achieve his goal. Looking at it now, it was Li Huacheng who forced Jiang Shangyu to leave Zhongzhou.
If we combine the previous negotiations, we can even draw a conclusion: Li Huacheng forced Jiang Shangyu to hand over the chips in his hand to Li Tianlan.
If this is really the case, then everything seems to make sense, except for Li Huacheng's motives.
Although he called Li Huacheng a teacher, Li Tianlan himself knew very well that until he truly matured, the other party would not allow him to have the power to ignore the rules in Central Continent.
This is what Li Huacheng once said.
But what he said and what he is doing now are completely different.
so...
It seemed that Li Huacheng gave him a big gift through Jiang Shangyu, but what was the reality?
What is he planning?
"Jiang Shangyu is hostile to me."
Li Tianlan said in a calm voice.
Dongcheng Wudi said yes, not surprised at all. It was a foregone conclusion that Jiang Shangyu left Zhongzhou, and it was also a foregone conclusion that he handed over the chips in his hand to Li Tianlan, but this did not mean that the two were not enemies. It was normal to have hostility.
"But he acted very conflicted."
Li Tianlan continued.
"What's the meaning?"
Dongcheng Wudi asked.
"Can't tell."
Li Tianlan shook his head: "It feels very strange."
He had some ideas in his mind, but he wasn't sure if they were correct.
Protect the safety of the country.
This is what Jiang Shangyu asked of him.
This request seems like there is no request at all, but it is more like a hint than a request.
So, what is Jiang Shangyu implying?
"Where are the people who investigated the cause of Jiang Shangyu's death and who confirmed Jiang Shangyu's death and gave a written report now?"
Li Tianlan suddenly asked.
Dongcheng Wudi was stunned for a moment, silent for a few seconds, and said softly: "What are you suspecting?
The Congress took Jiang Shangyu's death very seriously and dispatched a professional investigation team, with elites drawn from various departments, including personnel from Jingchao, Security, Junfang, and Special Operations Headquarters, and it was a joint investigation.
The final report was signed by everyone."
"So this report cannot be false. After DNA comparison, Jiang Shangyu is indeed dead, right?"
Li Tianlan said softly.
Dongcheng Wudi nodded: "Jiang Shangyu may know someone in the investigation team, but the Jiang family does not have the strength to deploy people in various departments, and it is impossible for everyone in the investigation team to be from the Jiang family. This is too coincidental.
Yes, so the Jiang family cannot make any lies in the report."
"The Jiang family really doesn't have this ability."
Li Tianlan nodded and walked out slowly.
Qin Weibai paused as he followed behind.
She glanced at Dongcheng Wudi and said softly: "Dad, the Jiang family doesn't have this ability, but Li Huacheng does..."
Dongcheng Wudi's expression suddenly stiffened, and he froze in place.
The interior of the mourning hall was still deserted and cold.
Jiang Shan obviously did not plan to hold this funeral in a big way. Otherwise, even if the Jiang family does not have many relatives now and is a so-called small family, the funeral of the chairman's son will definitely be held by all departments in Northern Xinjiang as long as they can get involved.
Wouldn't miss an occasion like this.
As soon as Li Tianlan and others walked out of the side hall, they were noticed by Jiang Shan.
The congressman, whose eyes were bloodshot and extremely haggard, managed to put a smile on his lips and walked over to shake hands with Li Tianlan and Dongcheng Wudi.
"Your Majesty, Minister, Mr. Qin, where are you going?"
"It's time to go back."
Dongcheng Wudi took the initiative to take over the conversation and said softly:
"We just came here to take a look. It's our intention at least. Lao Jiang, don't be too sad. My condolences."
It was natural for him to call him Lao Jiang.
In terms of real age, Jiang Shan is five or six years older than him.
"Thank you, Minister."
Jiang Shan held Dongcheng Wudi's hand tightly and his tone sounded sincere.
Dongcheng Wudi patted his arm and said nothing more.
"The mourning hall is a bit cooler."
Li Tianlan said suddenly.
"yes."
Jiang Shan took a deep look at him and said calmly: "No one has been notified. Everyone is busy, so there is no need to go to too much trouble."
"The Northern Xinjiang Council didn't notify you either?"
Li Tianlan asked.
"No."
Jiang Shan's expression remained unchanged and he repeated: "Everyone is busy, there is no need to be too troublesome."
Li Tianlan looked at Jiangshan quietly, and after a long while, he said calmly: "Are you afraid of causing trouble to everyone, or are you afraid that the Central Continent Council will see your control over Northern Xinjiang?"
Jiang Shan narrowed his eyes and said calmly: "I don't know what your Majesty means."
"Means nothing."
Li Tianlan shook his head: "Jiang Shangyu is leaving Zhongzhou, and I promised him that I will be responsible for your future safety.
Northern Xinjiang is a very special place. You must be tired after being here for so many years. Please change the environment and prepare to retire."
After a pause, he said calmly: "This is not a suggestion, it is just a notice. You can prepare in advance."
Jiang Shan said nothing and had no attitude.
Without an attitude, it is an attitude in itself.
A very contradictory attitude.
In terms of positions, Jiang Shan can be said to be a standard powerful member. Although he cannot compare with those at the front, he is much better than those at the back.
But in the impression of Zhongzhou as a whole, Jiang Shan has always been the councilor with the lowest sense of presence in recent years.
Because the northern Xinjiang under his control has been peaceful and calm over the years.
what does that mean?
Northern Xinjiang is not Wuyue, nor is it southern Guangdong.
Compared with the latter two, economic development is undoubtedly the most important.
And Northern Xinjiang...
Compared with economic development, the most important thing is calmness.
To what extent Jiangshan controls Northern Xinjiang is something that the entire parliament has always wanted to know but does not know.
This will become the place where the new group operates in the future, the largest province in Central Continent.
Zhou Yu came over first, and then the new group will definitely make efforts to adjust the structure of Beijiang. In this process, Fang Jiangshan and the team that Jiangshan has built over the years will probably be very lively.
Whether Zhou Yu, a future leader who was originally trained as the successor of the Northern Group, can reach the same level as Zou Yuanshan after joining the new group will probably depend on his competition with Jiangshan in Northern Xinjiang in the past two years.
"I am not the parliament. I am staring at you, which is different from the parliament staring at you. Do you understand what I mean?"
Li Tianlan asked.
Jiang Shan nodded and said calmly: "I understand, Your Majesty."
Li Tianlan suddenly waved his hand.
The invisible sword energy passed through the mourning hall and passed over the incense burner in front of Yu's photo on the river.
The sword energy surges.
Li Tianlan directly pulled out the incense candle he had put on Jiang Shangyu, which was about to burn to the bottom.
He put incense on Jiang Shangyu.
But before leaving, he pulled out the incense again.
Jiang Shan watched quietly. Even when faced with this humiliating scene, he did not have many emotional changes.
Li Tianlan held the piece of incense candle and looked at Jiangshan calmly: "I'm asking you once."
He said slowly: "Are you sad?"
Jiang Shan lowered his head slightly, as if he didn't hear anything and remained silent.
Li Tianlan glanced at him one last time and turned around slowly: "Let's go."
